Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cancellous bone is found in the end of long bones and in the middle of flat and irregular bones. Cancellous bone is not as organized as compact bone and it does not have Haversian systems. Here, the matrix is arranged in delicate slivers and plates called trabeculae. The spaces between the interlocking trabeculae give cancellous bone a spongy appearance.
